How do you all Fish "beaver" style baits?

[JP Z]

I just picked some up to try this year, Had soo many plastics I just didn't think I "needed" anymore. Well I pulled the trigger at the show.......so how do you rig them? Texas, Jighead, as a Jig Trailer.......

I'm not telling you.. its a secret.

Booooooo ha ha ha~~~

Ok, they work great on a regular round head jig(jig worm), they work great on football jigs, Ive used them with carolina rigs, They are a great flippin/pitching lure.. and Ive dropshotted the smaller sizes.

Very Interesting.........Yeah my plan is as a flippin/pitchen presentation t-rigged and pegged for docks...

[Deitz Dittrich]

Dude, its a hunk of plastic.. its uses is only held back by ones own imagination.

Whatever you do, dont try to rig it backwards on a carolina rig... the little flappy things dont curl up and look like a crawfish and it doesnt catch fish, never, ever! Matter of fact I dont want you to get frstrated fishing them.. I will dispose of them for me, you have my addy just send them my way. You can thank me later.

Hiya -

(Back from Florida...)

Beaver type baits are pretty hard to use wrong. I Texas rig them for flipping (actually I usually use a Northland Jungle Lock jig rather than a separate hook and weight), Carolina rig them, love them on Football heads, and they're a pretty good jig and pig trailer too.

They're kind of like a tube - they just look like food, and if you put them in the water, they'll get eaten.

Cheers,

Most of the replies have already covered the beaver style baits rigs that I use.My main use of beavers is as plastic dressing for weedless jigs, and add 'em to football jigs.Gonna have to give the beavers a good college try on a carolina rig, this summer.
